Hello, all. SO.... What's new, hm? I've been listening to B y S for just about a year now and seem to really dig them. Loads of diversity, lots of neat sounds, and lyrics actually worth listening to.... It seems, though, that after a few songs I start humming a Nick Drake song or, occasionally, this one particular Neil Young, but I can't remember what that one's called. I'm damned old and I've been a true lover of music for as long as I remember and a true lover of just about any kind of music, and I guess I'm trying to get to this here question, but not well. I see lots of references to 'twee' on other sites that focus on Belle and Sebastian. What the h3ll is 'twee?' Is it a good thing? Is it nicer with butter? Perhaps some of you could illuminate me, hm? And about those pictures on your website - what a swell bunch of attractive, sweet people, all! Aw, hell, it's 3:15 in the morning! Where has the time gone? Like I said, this is my first 'proper' post and I'm looking forward to hearing from you folks.
